Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq: Statements.

 

I am no pacifist, but I know enough of life to know that jaw-jaw is better than war-war. There is a sense of people needing to take part in a great, heroic war effort. There is nothing heroic about war, about bombing civilians, about beating women into the ground or about killing children. There must be a better way. I applaud the Minister of State, Deputy Tom Kitt, who has given his heart and soul to humanitarian efforts. I am glad we have had the opportunity to discuss this matter today.
